Human Right of Afghanistan
Human rights groups in Afghanistan are shifted their focus towards condemning abuses committed by the Taliban insurgents, rather than those attributed to the American military and its allies. The Taliban has a major part in human right in Afghanistan; the Taliban is one of the major problems in human rights in Afghanistan. They take over villages, cities, and are trying to take over all of Afghanistan. The Taliban is responsible for over three fourths of civilian causalities which expanded twenty percent since last year. The Taliban is affecting the right of the civilians in Afghanistan because they will kill at any means. They kill if someone doesn’t speak the same language or believe in the same religion. This is a major problem because if they kill everyone who doesn’t believe what they believe then it would be a huge massacre. The Taliban say that civilians are the necessarily the targets, but the main victims. Human rights group in Afghanistan say that the NATO is responsible for 508 civilian deaths last year. Even though it isn’t as much as the Taliban they still say that is unacceptable. They say the NATO apologizes many time and take responsibility for what they have did and the lives they have taken, but they were not all intentional, some were precautions. Since then NATO and the American military leaders have reduced civilian deaths caused by them. Human right Groups are now more focused on the Taliban and not so much of the NATO and the American army. Even though they are not fully out of sight but they are now more focused on what the Taliban is doing and why they are doing it.
Environmental Information
There are many environmental issue that take place in Afghanistan but i want to focus on one that i think is very important, Which is the people of Afghanistan not having the money to produce the things that they need. I believe that this is the most important issue because if you don't have the money to produce the thing that you need it leads to an economical disaster. They don't have the money to produce fuel, food, or many other things that they need to keep their country from being poor. Also since their unemployment rate is steadily growing which mean more people is out of work and have less means to support there selves and their family.
Since the people of Afghanistan lack the means to produce fuels, they must cut down trees, uproot shrubs, and collect dung for burning. Domestic animals overgraze the range. Another thing that is making Afghanistan lose money is the war against the Taliban. Since the war against the Taliban is on going, Afghanistan has to keep putting out money for resources for their troops. This is a very serious problem because more of their country is going into poverty as time goes by.
Decision Statement Defending Why You Chose The Country Best Suited For Relocating
If i was living in Afghanistan and i had the option to relocate to another country I would. i say this because if you look at everything that is important to run a country Afghanistan is lacking a lot. For example the economy is not the best, there is a war going on within the countries walls, and also there is a lot of poverty going on. Again this is why I say that i would relocate to another country like Brazil.
I say Brazil because if you look at all of the problems in Afghanistan Brazil is in a way better place. I say this because their economy is way better, there unemployment rate is less, and there their education rate is better also. So in my opinion i would say that Brazil is a better place to live because you have more opportunity. I think that Brazil is in a way better place the Afghanistan also because there is no war going on in that country, and also I think it is a better place to raise a family.
Like I stated before I would relocate from Afghanistan because of all the problems that are going on right now. Also because the economy is not at all in a good position, and there is a war within the walls of Afghanistan. In my opinion i just think that Brazil is a better place to be, and also a better environment to live in. If I had a choice to be in either country i would pick Brazil with no hesitations, because as I said I think Brazil has more opportunities for the people that live in their country than Afghanistan.
